    FACILITY INFORMATION

    Woodbury County Law Enforcement Center and Jail

    3701 28th Street, Sioux City, IA 51105

    Facility Phone: (712) 279-6040

    Woodbury County completed its new Law Enforcement Center and Jail in 2024. The jail houses local inmates and federal prisoners, and current Iowa detention reporting identifies Woodbury County as one of the counties housing ICE detainees.

    Confirm the Person Is Still in Sioux City

    Do not rely on older Woodbury County jail addresses. The county moved jail operations to the newer Law Enforcement Center. Confirm the person's current ICE custody location before traveling.

    IMMIGRATION COURT

    Immigration Court

    Iowa immigration matters fall within the Omaha Immigration Court administrative structure (1717 Avenue H, Suite 100, Omaha, NE 68110). EOIR does not separately name Woodbury County Jail in its current administrative-control list. Always check the person's hearing notice and EOIR case information.
